On an Island

David Gilmour's solo career hasn't exactly been creatively restless; this is but the third album by the Pink Floyd guitarist, and first in 18 years. But that seemingly lackadaisical career ethos hasn't prevented Gilmour from producing some of his finest work here, an album whose soaring, lyrical guitar lines will be familiar to Floyd fans, yet one also blessed by often surprising nuances and delicate musical textures. Gilmour's Division Bell collaborator Polly Samson is credited with most of the writing, helping conjure a moody, texturally rich "island" that's as much musical as it is personally and lyrically metaphorical. "Castellorizon," the impressionistic opening instrumental collage, presages much of what's to come in subtle ways, with Gilmour's emotionally-charged guitar lines climbing into realms usually staked out by contemporary Jeff Beck.

Gilmour's choice of collaborators is equally compelling, from the evocative orchestrations of Polish classical modernist Zbigniew Preisner and expected contributions from Floyd (Richard Wright and proto-Pink mate Rado "Bob" Klose) to a host of guest turns that span both decades and styles: Georgie Fame, Phil Manzanera, Jools Holland, Caroline Dale and Robert Wyatt. The title track is graced by the stately harmonies of David Crosby and Graham Nash while the instrumental "Then I Close My Eyes" spins a hypnotic, bayou-meets-boho ethos where Dale's gentle cello lines meet the melancholy cornet flourishes of Wyatt to challenge the very notions of genre itself. "This Heaven" finds Gilmour in unexpected R&B territory, weaving playful riffs with `60s London scenester Fame's Hammond organ and finding its lyrical spirituality in simple, personal intimacy, a subtext that wafts through the upbeat airiness of "The Blue" to the spare "Smile," spinning a surprisingly romantic elegy that co! mes satisfyingly full circle on the closing "Where We Start." No man may be an island, but Gilmour has nonetheless crafted a rewarding artistic oasis on this, his finest and most gently personal album. -- Jerry McCulley

Turn many people on the Internet to find information about any subject you can think of in the world today. Something that grows in popularity searches full music lyrics, all genres of songs.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show (25th Anniversary Edition)

If a musical sci-fi satire about an alien transvestite named Frank-n-Furter, who is building the perfect man while playing sexual games with his virginal visitors, sounds like an intriguing premise for a movie, then you're in for a treat. Not only is The Rocky Horror Picture all this and more, but it stars the surprising cast of Susan Sarandon and Barry Bostwick (as the demure Janet and uptight Brad, who get lost in a storm and find themselves stranded at Frank-n-Furter's mansion), Meat Loaf (as the rebel Eddie), Charles Gray (as our criminologist and narrator), and, of course, the inimitable Tim Curry as our "sweet transvestite from Transsexual, Transylvania."

Upon its release in 1975, the film was an astounding flop. But a few devotees persuaded a New York theater to show it at midnight, and thus was born one of the ultimate cult films of all time. The songs are addictive (just try getting "The Time Warp" or "Toucha Toucha Touch Me" out of your head), the raunchiness amusing, and the plot line utterly ridiculous--in other words, this film is simply tremendous good fun. The downfall, however, is that much of the amusement is found in the audience participation that is obviously missing from a video version (viewers in theaters shout lines at the screen and use props--such as holding up newspapers and shooting water guns during the storm, and throwing rice during a wedding scene). Watched alone as a straight movie, Rocky Horror loses a tremendous amount of its charm. Yet, for those who wish to perfect their lip-synching techniques for movie theater performances or for those who want to gather a crowd around the TV at home for some good, old-fashioned, rowdy fun, this film can't be beat. --Jenny Brown

Lyric writing 101: part 1

Translate Request has too much data
Parameter name: request
Translate Request has too much data
Parameter name: request

Lyric writing is much like any other style of writing, the more time you spend working on it, the more you will grow as a writer. So what exactly are lyrics? Song lyrics can basically be thought of as singable poetry. The Oxford dictionary defines the word ‘lyric’ as 1) (of poetry) expressing the poet’s thoughts and feelings, usually briefly and in stanzas, songlike (a lyric poem) 2) (lyrics) the words of a song. By using this definition, we can assume that the process of writing lyrics draws from some of the same techniques used in poetry.

Why write lyrics? This may seem like an odd question, there are literary hundreds of answers to this, but it is something you will need to ask yourself before you start. Is it because you have a story to tell, because you want to express a particular emotion to your audience? Some write purely for themselves, like a kind of personal therapy. Or perhaps it’s simply because the human voice is an important part of the style of music they are written for.

What do you want to say? Most lyrics are written with a message or some kind of effect in mind. You will need to have a clear idea of what you want out of the lyrics or you will run the risk of creating weak lyrics. Weak lyrics tend to resort to clichéd, generic and boring phrases when they are written solely to ‘fit’ the tune. On the other hand, don’t be carried away with the message, make it a point for the lyrics to be somewhat cryptic. Do not ‘spoon feed’ your audience, plant the seed of your idea and let the audience come to their own conclusions.

As with all forms of creativity, lyrics are an expression of personal ideas, beliefs and themes. Lyric writing is just a matter of expressing these beliefs and feelings. As with most forms of writing, it is best to write about what you know. Because everybody has their own experiences, emotions and beliefs, it becomes hard to give an exact instruction on how to write, everyone has their own opinions on how it should be done. The most I can do in this series is give a guide about how to go about finding your own style by learning from the music that you listen to. This is a great way to learn, as many of the bands you listen to have learned, and draw influences, from other established artists.

There are several ways you can write lyrics:

* Create a melody & write lyrics to accompany it; or

* Write a set of lyrics & add the melody to it; or

* A combination of the above two examples, i.e. do both at the same time.

So, where do you actually start with the writing process? Well, there are countless possible ways (too many to mention here). It really is a matter of preference; every lyricist has his or her own style, much like any artist. A couple of simple ways that are an excellent way to begin are as follows:

1) Start with a possible hook line or chorus and work around it

An example of this can be taken from Coldplay’s hit “Yellow”. The song was derived from a first line that came about from where the band was on the night, as explained in October’s SOS: “‘Yellow’ was written at Rockfield when we where there. The studio we were in is called the Quadrangle Studio – the studio is along one side of an open courtyard, and we went out one night, and because there were so few lights, the stars were just amazing. Guy just came up with the line ‘Look at the stars.’”

2) Start with a title and work around it.

For example, using “Written in Sand” as your title, you can brain-storm around this idea: The phrase suggests that which can be washed away; it also brings the phrase ‘written in stone’ to mind; the word “sand” brings to mind the words like flowing & changing, which brings the words time & water. The word “written” suggests fate or destiny. So a possibility that the song will be about how you can change your destiny. Now there is a basic theme that you can work around.

Tools Of The Trade

What are the tools of a lyricist? One would obviously think a pen and paper (or a computer & word processor) plus the creative mind of the lyricist and the possible use of a musical instrument. There are other tools available for the lyricist to take advantage of, these may seem painfully obvious, but they are quite often overlooked by many people.

Dictionary – A dictionary is an essential tool for any writer, not only for spelling but word meanings. English is a dynamic language, words are constantly being added so it is important to keep an updated dictionary on hand, a 20-year-old dictionary may’ no longer contain the latest words and meanings. It is important not to be too abstruse for your audience but neither is there the need to overuse the same monosyllabic words. It may be of use to keep a couple of different dictionaries (i.e. Oxford & Macquarie) this is because some word meanings may differ slightly, and can be used to colour your lyrics.

Thesaurus - A good dictionary can be supplemented with a thesaurus. The use of a thesaurus is a great way to avoid over-using words and can even inspire your ideas leading them to new directions. This can be very usefully whilst brainstorming.

* -- * This is just a simple word-association game; that you can easily apply to any word. Look up the word ‘remains’ in your thesaurus, you are shown: debris, fragments, leavings, leftovers, remnants, and scraps. Now look up ‘debris’ and you will find it also has: flotsam, litter, pieces, refuse, rubbish, rubble, ruins, wreckage and waste to add to your word list. You can do this with as many of the words you like. Some of these extra words will have no use for what you are working on but there may be those one or two words that will fit perfectly.

Rhyming Dictionaries - These particular dictionaries are specifically generated for poets and lyricists. They do not define words as most dictionaries do; they merely list words that rhyme. Some scorn the use of this particular tool, sighting that it is all too easy to rely solely on the list of rhymes than to put a little thought into your rhyming structure. It is also true that many people waste a considerable amount of time listing the words they know to rhyme only to lose the train of thought they were on thus, killing the creative process. If used sensibly, like a thesaurus, a rhyming dictionary can be a very useful tool.

Other Dictionaries - There are other dictionaries available that may be of use to a lyricist. One that comes to mind is the ‘slang’ dictionary. I’ve only seen an “Australian Dictionary of Slang”. Most countries use their own form of slang so I would assume that there are others available. It really depends on what you are working on and who your target audience is, but they may help to put that finishing touch, or stamp of authenticity on a piece. Check your local bookshop for the range of other dictionaries available.

Other Means - What other tools are available? There are many other ways to help with the creative process. Listening to a wide range of music can be helpful, don’t just listen to your normal ‘style’ of music, there are thousands of different music styles around, explore these possibilities. Music has been inspiring people for thousands of years, so it seems logical to turn to it when it comes to your own musical venture.

You may not like some particular styles of music, but you can get an idea from them that you can convert or merge to your chosen genre. If done correctly, it has the potential of being a powerful piece of music that is unique. This is why it is important to be open to all styles and ideas. Some of the most ‘controversial’ bands have reached the popularity they have, simply because they have a unique sound and the ‘message’ they want to convey is something that their fans can relate to.

Bands like Korn, Limp Bizkit, Staind, Linkin Park and Disturbed are given the music ‘title’ of nu-metal (or nu-music) simply because they utilize a wide range of musical sub-genres within the ‘rock’ genre. This can be seen in other more established merges such as ‘country-rock’, ‘pop-rock’ and the recent surfacing of ‘Latin-pop/rock’. If you look throughout music history (particularly that of ‘rock & roll’) you can see this trend more clearly. What do I mean by mixing the different genres? Below are some examples of what I mean.

* ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ by Queen is a perfect example of genre mixing. The song has three distinct phase changes within it. It starts off similar to many ballads, then phase changes to a ‘light opera-ish’ stage, and phase changes to ‘rock’ before changing back to the ‘ballad’.

* Another trend that is starting up is adapting a song from one style of music and transforming it to another. An example of this can be taken from many of Staind’s songs. The album version of their song ‘Can’t Believe’ has a distinguished ‘rock’ sound. But if you listen to the MTV: Unplugged version, you will notice that (although the music has the same tune) it is acoustic and is sung in a more ballad-like tune.

* -- * In Australia, the radio station Triple M’s Breakfast Show has a ‘Musical Challenge’ in place where they put musicians (both local & international) “to the test”. The Challenge: give a song to a band which is the total opposite to their normal style and get them to ‘remake’ it. Triple M has released some of these songs on CD (proceeds going to charity) if your interested in listening. Some of the songs used: Radiohead’s “Creep” performed by country singer Gina Jeffreys (one of the stations most requested songs); Coolio’s “Gangsta’s Paradise” performed by rock musician Richard Clapton, Men At Work’s “Down Under” performed by The Russian Red Army Choir (now one of their most popular songs); Silverchair’s “Freak” performed by country singer Troy Cassar-Daley; the list goes on. It’s well worth the listen.

Apart from listening to these different forms, you could simply go to a site like http://www.getlyrics.com and just read the lyric form of different musical styles. You can easily use the above example and apply it to just the lyric process of some of these artists and merge it to your own music. There is a wealth of knowledge to be discovered from established artists, only if you are willing to look. It may not be ‘conventional’ but then, throughout history, music has been about breaking down pre-existing barriers

As you can see, there is a lot more available to the lyricist besides the simple pen and paper. If used wisely these various tools can help to hone your skills as a lyricist, bringing the best out of your work. Naturally, there may be other tools available that haven’t been mentioned here that the lyricist can use. By all means, use whatever comes to mind. You are only limited by your imagination.

Look out for Part 2 of this series, where you will learn how to accompany words with music by writing Alternate Lyrics.

Sleeping Beauty (Two-Disc Platinum Edition)

Disney's 1959 animated effort was the studio's most ambitious to date, a widescreen spectacle boasting a gorgeous waltz-filled score adapting Tchaikovsky. In the 14th century, the malevolent Maleficent (not dissimilar to the wicked Queen in Disney's Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs taunts a king that his infant Aurora will fatally prick her finger on a spinning wheel before sundown on her 16th birthday. This, of course, would deny her a happily-ever-after with her true love. Things almost but not quite turn out that way, thanks to the assistance of some bubbly, bumbling fairies named Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather. It's not really all that much about the title character--how interesting can someone in the middle of a long nap be, anyway? Instead, those fairies carry the day, as well as, of course, good Prince Phillip, whose battle with the malevolent Maleficent in the guise of a dragon has been co-opted by any number of animated films since. See it in its original glory here. And Malificent's castle, filled with warthogs and demonic imps in a macabre dance celebrating their evil ways, manages a certain creepy grandeur. --David Kronke

On the DVD
Sleeping Beauty was the last and most lavish of Walt Disney's animated fairy tales. He told the artists not to hurry and to give him "a moving illustration": The film required almost four and one-half years and one million finished drawings. Instead of the 19th century storybook illustrations that had influenced the look of Snow White and Pinocchio, the artists adapted the flattened perspective and jewel-like colors of 15th century French illuminated manuscripts. The results remain unmatched for sheer visual opulence. However, Sleeping Beauty suffers from a weak story: the vision of an ageless princess slumbering in a vine-shrouded tower was replaced with elements of Snow White and a boy-meets-girl musical. The evil Maleficent and the three Good Fairies (Flora, Fauna, and Merryweather) dominate the film, rather than Princess Aurora and Prince Philip. Sleeping Beauty was originally released in 70mm, and the Blu-ray edition restores the film to its original splendor. (Many earlier releases trimmed the wide-screen images and/or muted the glowing palatte.) The Bonus DVD looks good on a flat screen monitor, but it pales in comparison to the richness of the Blu-ray. In addition to the commentaries and a making-of documentary, the set includes myriad extras that vary widely in quality. Nostalgia buffs will enjoy the recreation of the old Sleeping Beauty's Castle attraction in Disneyland, and the TV program "Four Artists Paint One Tree" provides a welcome showcase for key talents from the film. But the CG animation of the dragon and the voice imitations of the Good Fairies fail to capture the magic of the originals in the "Dragon Encounter"; the "Maleficent's Challenge Game"--a hi-tech Twenty Questions--sounds only vaguely like the redoubtable sorceress. (Rated G: violence) --Charles Solomon

Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas [VHS]

For those who never thought Disney would release a film in which Santa Claus is kidnapped and tortured, well, here it is! The full title is Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas, which should give you an idea of the tone of this stop-action animated musical/fantasy/horror/comedy. It is based on characters created by Burton, the former Disney animator best known as the director of Pee-wee's Big Adventure, Beetlejuice, Edward Scissorhands, and the first two Batman movies. His benignly scary-funny sensibility dominates the story of Halloweentown resident Jack Skellington (voice by Danny Elfman, who also wrote the songs), who stumbles on a bizarre and fascinating alternative universe called ... Christmastown! Directed by Henry Selick (who later made the delightful James and the Giant Peach), this PG-rated picture has a reassuringly light touch. As Roger Ebert noted in his review, "some of the Halloween creatures might be a tad scary for smaller children, but this is the kind of movie older kids will eat up; it has the kind of offbeat, subversive energy that tells them wonderful things are likely to happen." --Jim Emerson

Authors sometimes find it really tempting to use song lyrics in a novel or story. The words of the song are just so powerful and so right that... well, they need to be there.

If you're considering using song lyrics in your work of fiction, you may want to come up with a back-up plan. Here are some things you should know:

you or your publisher may be able to get rights to use the lyrics--or maybe not
it's probably going to cost you (typically a small fee per copy you make, but that can add up)
your publisher may decide the lyrics aren't worth the time/effort/money required to use them.

What about 'fair use'?

Fair Use principles weren't put in place to cover fiction.

You could claim fair use if you were writing, say, a nonfiction piece looking at U.S. cultural shifts over the last fifty years through the lens of Top-10 lyrics. To write such a work, you'd clearly need to reference some lyrics. But if you tried to get permission and pay for every single song, those barriers would jeopardize your ability to produce the work. Fair use would allow you to quote a few lines from each song to help make your point as you presented your analysis.

Putting lyrics into your fiction is something else altogether.

You'll read a lot of pages online that talk about lyric printing as 'fair use', etc., but that's a stretch of the fair use doctrine and completely unreliable when it comes to novels and other works of fiction.

What's the worst that could happen?

I'm not a lawyer. Personally, I think the worst that would probably happen is that someone would see you used the lyrics and sue to make you pay. You'd have to pay the usage fees, plus maybe some punitive damages and court fees. All that could add up to a great deal more than it would have cost to get the rights in the first place.

I further think rights-holders' attorneys' time would be better spent going after web sites that publish lyrics and musical arrangements in their entirety.

If you have a bestseller on your hands and make millions, though, you're going to be putting yourself into a whole other class of rights violators.

Shouldn't the artist or songwriter be pleased I love their work enough to include it?

Don't take it personally; it's business. Artists, unless they wrote their own songs or bought the rights, don't really have a claim to the lyrics. The songwriter does unless he or she sold them all. But the person you need to worry about most in this equation is typically a music publishing company. That company probably paid money for the rights to control publication of those lyrics you want. They're highly unlikely to get warm fuzzies because you want to use lyrics under their control. Even if they do, they have to pay people (such as the songwriter) for that usage.

Bottom line: Lyrics are intellectual property. They're worth money.

But isn't this like free advertising for them?

In a way... maybe... if your story causes a bunch of people to rush out and buy the sheet music. But that's not likely. At best, it might cause readers to buy the song. That's covered under altogether different rights--performance and recording rights, etc. Someone, somewhere might be pleased. Depending on how things are set up, a little of that money might even trickle to the music publishing company. That prospect, however, is not likely to cause that company to let you use the lyrics for free.

So how much does it cost?

Basically, to use the song, you'll need to enter into a contract with the rights-holder. That company will tell you how much it wants for the usage you've described. A lot of factors go into the cost, including the portion of the song that you're intending to use. If you're only using a line or two, you may be looking at only a few cents per copy you make. Or it could be a lot higher. There generally are different fee schedules for hard-copy vice online use. You won't really be able to gauge the potential cost until you ask.

If all you want is a few lines from a single song, it's probably affordable. If you want to start each of thirty chapters with a line from a song, your cost and hassle will multiply. You're going to have to pay for each of those lines. Getting permission may entail going to not one, but several, different companies.

How do I get started?

Basically, you start the process by writing to the entity that manages the rights.

If you're an author in search of a traditional publisher, it won't do you much good to ask early. If, however, you plan to disseminate copies of the work while you're on your way to publication, the safest thing to do is to request permission from the rights-holder. Often, the company is willing to let you use the lyrics in this way for free. For example, I've been able to get permission to use sets of lyrics in online writing workshops for free because I wasn't making any money from the work and because only a few hundred people would visit the location where it was posted.

If you don't intend to share the work with others prior to publication, it's best to wait until you're a little closer to publication to request permission. In considering your request for rights, the company is going to want to know how many copies will be published and what format, as well as other things you can't tell them. You and your publisher can decide how to handle the request--if your publisher's even willing to deal with the issue at all. Some small publishers just don't have the resources to deal with the usage requests and the required follow-up. Your publisher may just tell you to scrap the lyrics.

If you're going the self-publishing route (hard-copy or e-book), then you should be in a position to give the rights-holder the details it wants.

How do I request permission?

Generally, you write to the music publisher. Try Googling the song name and the term "sheet music". There are lots of places that sell sheet music online for a few dollars, and you can download it right away. I often find the answers I need for this at sheetmusicplus.

Check the details for the song to make sure you've got the right one. Sometimes the same song will end up in different arrangements, published by different companies. And sometimes multiple songs will share a title.

The sheet music will reveal the publisher and its address information and, in some cases, will even tell where to go for additional permissions. If it doesn't, the publishing company's webpage probably will.

If you're unable to determine the music publisher, you might find some hints by checking the songs in the databases of the entities that handle performance rights: ASCAP; BMI; and SESAC.

Once you get the music publisher's contact information, you can write to the company (some even have online forms) and tell what you want to do and what lyrics you want to use. Make sure you tell them what you want is a *print license*. Most of the publishing houses have guidelines on their sites for what they expect in a license request. After that, they'll probably write you back and/or send you a proposal contract with their terms. It's probably going to include a lot of details that make no sense to you, unless you're a lawyer; if you're not, you might want to talk to one about that contract so you understand what it is you're signing.

By the way, there are companies online who make all this easier, if you're willing to pay them to do it for you. They'll track down the info., handle the paperwork, etc., but most authors I've talked to don't think those companies are worth what you'd pay.

What are my alternatives?

Ditch the poetry.

Write your own poem.

Find a poet or songwriter who's fighting to make a name for himself; he might be willing to let you use his material for free, if you give him proper credit.

If it's really, really got to be that song, then consider just giving its title (surrounded by double quote marks) and don't use the lyrics. Because there are only so many words that can be used, song titles can't be copyrighted except under really stringent conditions in which they can be treated as entities unto themselves -- like if the song title comprises a whole line from the song or if it's a made-up word that the writer himself created or something like that. Usually, it's not so much copyright as trademark protection that comes into play there. But that's a really rare situation and so for general use, song titles are thought of as fair game--sort of like book titles. Still, the safest thing is to double-check (either through checking on the web or contacting the lyrics' rights-holder) to make sure your song name isn't one of the few exceptions.

If you're just posting your writing on the web, without charging for it, then you have another option. Include the song name and a link to the song at a music-sharing site. I personally like IMEEM because it's reported to have contracts with the big recording labels so that all the appropriate people get paid when the songs are played. Plus the player has a link that your reader can follow to buy the song, so this really is a way for you to give free advertising to the song you love.

Imeem is free and ultra-easy to use. The page for a song gives you code that you can just drop onto your blog or webpage to play the music. Some of those are limited to a 30-second play, but that's usually enough to convey the essence of the music, remind the reader of the song, etc., and if the reader wants to hear the whole thing, he can always follow the link to Imeem.

A word of caution: I've only looked into IMEEM for noncommercial usage. I assume they mave different rules when it comes to works for which you're actually charging. If your readers have to pay to access your work, you'll need to contact IMEEM to find out whether your usage falls within their license terms.

A lesson in anatomy - lyrics, which tackle the human body

The human body is the subject of songs and texts often these days. Perhaps this is because the human body can cover a wide range of symbolism and meaning; Although it is probably a popular topic because of how these texts deal with the topic. Look at the popular song "Your body is a Wonderland" by John Mayer. The title of the song and that is several times in the text-is an obvious metaphor. The title and text of the song have obviously sexual undertones-the imagination left is how the body can be a wonderland.

Yet, the text is self explanatory. "You, if you want love / we do cause."/ Swimming in a deep sea / of cover, "sings John Mayer, and the audience already know what he about singt.Der body continues to be a"Wonderland"in other lyrics."

"My Humps," Black Eyed peas

This song that does my black eyed peas, not just mentioned the word "Body" in his lyrics, and neither does it directly say that "Junk," "humps", and "Lump" are actually certain parts of the human anatomy.

Yet who is easily familiar with contemporary popular culture would know just why the texts about.Yet, in the texts themselves, who is not familiar with how these words can be used easily drift catch the song.Note: this part in the texts: "say I'm really sexy / the guys want me sex. / always stood next to me, / always tryin 'Feeling my hump hump., lookin' at my lump lumps dance beside me." "/ You can find, but you can touch it."Despite the sexual meaning of the song, can view the lyrics of "My Humps" as accessible without lewd.

"Hooked," Ne Yo

The texts of Ne-Yo's "Addicted" is straight to the point, which addresses the issue of sexual addiction.And it does it not metaphorically or by symbols and allusions or codes, the way the texts mentioned "Your body is a Wonderland" tut.stattdessen directly the words "Sex" and "If you put me" in his lyrics.

And the lyrics is not shy, either, especially in this part: "I bout was never shy, mein itself and sexuality / never been taboo (never been taboo but if I) have, without life / I know that something I could do its, / but I will only really not too."In contrast to "Your body is a Wonderland" texts "Addicted" is set just like plain prose in music.

"Trading Places," usher

Usher's "Trading Places" may just prove to songs and lyrics often fight sex, if you the body diskutieren.Aber lyrics "Trading Places" is not so much about the body about reversing the roles in a relationship.

This may seem politically correct because the texts assume that it standards on sexuality.

More than different to do tonight, the texts cited the persona is "(yeah) the car wash (yeah) I'm gonna go walkies / (yeah) contact the trash / (Yes) nothing but on your T-shirt" implies that they are strictly the tasks of a woman.

Hill Country Revue

The stage of Tennessee jam band festival Bonnaroo is an unlikely setting for the year's most important blues recording, but young firebrands North Mississippi Allstars pulled off a creative coup in June of 2004 with their Hill Country Revue. The concert teamed patriarch R.L. Burnside and his guitarist and rapper sons, the late Othar Turner's fife and drum band, the Black Crowes' Chris Robinson, and eccentric producer-pianist Jim Dickinson, the father of Allstars Luther and Cody Dickinson, with the wiry trio. The historic results handily blend all the racial, geographic, and cultural elements of the genre with adventurous musicality. Burnside is present more for his inspiration than his musical contribution. But his sons carry on the tradition while pushing its borders into hip-hop and six-string psychedelia. If there's a star here, though, it's guitarist Luther Dickinson, who playfully quotes Duane Allman, Jimi Hendrix, Jimmy Page, and the elder Burnside, and then adds a level of tonal and textural exploration to his performance that makes him a one-man defibrillator for the genre--insurance that the heart of the blues will keep pumping into the future. --Ted Drozdowski

Finishing the Hat: Collected Lyrics (1954-1981) with Attendant Comments, Principles, Heresies, Grudges, Whines and Anecdotes

Stephen Sondheim has won seven Tonys, an Academy Award, seven Grammys, a Pulitzer Prize and the Kennedy Center Honors. His career has spanned more than half a century, his lyrics have become synonymous with musical theater and popular culture, and in Finishing the Hatâ??titled after perhaps his most autobiographical song, from Sunday in the Park with Georgeâ??Sondheim has not only collected his lyrics for the first time, he is giving readers a rare personal look into his life as well as his remarkable productions.

Along with the lyrics for all of his musicals from 1954 to 1981â??including West Side Story, Company, Follies, A Little Night Music and Sweeney Toddâ??Sondheim treats us to never-before-published songs from each show, songs that were cut or discarded before seeing the light of day. He discusses his relationship with his mentor, Oscar Hammerstein II, and his collaborations with extraordinary talents such as Leonard Bernstein, Arthur Laurents, Ethel Merman, Richard Rodgers, Angela Lansbury, Harold Prince and a panoply of others. The anecdotesâ??filled with history, pointed observations and intimate detailsâ??transport us back to a time when theater was a major pillar of American culture. Best of all, Sondheim appraises his work and dissects his lyrics, as well as those of others, offering unparalleled insights into songwriting that will be studied by fans and aspiring songwriters for years to come.

Accompanying Sondheimâ??s sparkling writing are behind-the-scenes photographs from each production, along with handwritten music and lyrics from the songwriterâ??s personal collection.

Penetrating and surprising, poignant, funny and sometimes provocative, Finishing the Hat is not only an informative look at the art and craft of lyric writing, it is a history of the theater that belongs on the same literary shelf as Moss Hartâ??s Act One and Arthur Millerâ??s Timebends. It is also a book that will leave you humming the final bars of Merrily We Roll Along, while eagerly anticipating the next volume, which begins with the opening lines of Sunday in the Park with George.

The truth about lyric hearing aids

Except for the clinicians and the rare hearing enthusiasts, most people find the topic of hearing aids of great interest. So if a hearing aid so much buzz gets Lyric has, is it hard to ignore. The lyric hearing aid has been covered by the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, good morning America, doctors and Dr. oz. It is written about bloggers and Forum members all over the world were. As with nothing gets this much attention some of the information is out there exactly, while much of it isn't. As an independent audiologists and one of a few hundred clinicians, which actually fits lyric on patient I offer my perspective.

BEHAUPTUNGEN ABOUT LYRICS:

"Lyric is completely invisible" - between the term "invisible" quite generously was used MOSTLY TRUE - to certain types of hearing aids, if you describe the terms actually "very small" and "less" should be noticeable as other hearing aids were probably used.But used for the first time in history, the term "invisible" without reservation kann.In of the majority which is patients exposed it so far into the ear canal, you can see really, if you search for it. But in patients with flat ear canals you see clearly a part of it (if you search for it).

"Lyric devices are replaced every 3-4 months." - sometimes TRUE - it use for a period of up to 4 months was approved by the FDA for patients.But most devices die before reaching their 4 month Geburtstag.Die cause of death is usually related to moisture reach the power source and short sales from the aid or corrosion/blockage caused by excessive wax. In some cases between the third and fourth month occurs. In other cases it may occur much earlier.

"Lyric has no battery" - FALSE - listen using all devices makes and therefore one battery. Has the power from somewhere come and most hearing aid users want not to a wall socket bound appliance.the difference is lyric use no typical hearing aid battery and there are no batteries for the institution to change. It has a built-in makes source that cannot be replaced.If the battery dies - is no longer verwendbar.So instead of a battery change it every week or so, the whole device is changed every few months.

"Poetry is an analogue hearing aid." - ABSOLUTELY TRUE - as the most modern hearing aids use digital circuits, lyric uses an analog amplification circuit. Digital technology consumes more energy than analog. It would be a huge battery to a digital hearing aid circuit for power as long as 3-4 months, lyric needs too small to actually into the ear canal, fit so it take no huge battery - the analog circuits for space.

"Poetry is old inferior technology." - FALSE - this claim is often by audiologists and hearing aid dispensers, which did not have access to lyric. You hear the term to hearing aids from the 1970s equate "analog" and it. It doesn't work that way. Many digital functions used in modern hearing aids are required to compensate for the unnatural placement of a hearing aid.With lyric 4 mm of the marketed the eardrum are the natural acoustics and response of the ear so that to compete and often check packages top-of-the-line digital hearing aids.

Mostly outside the hearing aid industry consider "lyric's subscription model is a product of corporate greed." - FALSE - some critics lyric's subscription model as a blatant attempt to earn more money.While the intention of any business is to make money I present that the subscription model in this case the only practical method is to purchase.Lyric actually offers a non-subscription/per device payment option.If you want to pay $300 to$ 400 for a single device, Sie.Aber can you will be unhappy if it dies in three weeks instead of three months.The subscription model eliminates the early financial frustration associated with device error.

"Lyric doesn't work for many people." - TRUE - in sound medical, manufacturer of lyric, claims that approximately 50% of all hearing aid candidates not good lyric candidates sind.Dies is possibly because of ear Anatomy, degree who have hearing loss, lifestyle or General Gesundheitsbedingungen.Ich also found that a patient as a lyric candidate only to find that you have some sort of ear wax (liquid wax) consistently prematurely destroyed starting the device diagnostic a 30 days trial period is important ist.In of my experience, lyric may not be for all (or even most people), but most people who try it - love it.

Automatically download lyrics for iTunes and use it on the iPod or iPhone

If I buy music from iTunes, not they contain texts in the ID3 tags. I found it not convenient. I really like to have texts when I on the road and listing some music on my iPhone. It's nice to have the text so you can sing together whenever you want. There are many programs available that automatically Google search for texts and you can add the ID3 tags.

However, these programs have all disadvantages compared to free MP3 lyric Adder:

# 2 You have to pay for it: my opinion free is the price that everyone agrees. That is why the free MP3 lyric Adder / download program is absolutely free to use

# .Not able texts as a.TXT file download. Most plugins just download that lyrics and you add the ID3 tags. You can only view in iTunes or other program, the lyrics / / supported.This feature supported by the MP3 importer Mooi quae software.

Lyric writing 101: part 2

This is part two of my lyric writing guide. Here you learn how words to accompany by writing alternative texts.

It is not important, with cover songs to confuse alternative lyrics. There are many ways a cover song, you can change the texts easy like it in the Pink Floyd cover of tears for fear's "Shout" to modernise. You can also easily change the melody as seen in Madonna's version of Don MacLean's "American Pie" or Sheryl Crow's cover of guns n roses "Sweet Child o' Mine" [also changed to the voice of male to female change].Note, that the song essentially the same both lyrically also melodic secure.additional examples cover songs you under the reference on "triple M's musical challenge" in part 1 of this guide.

What are you?

Lyrics by alternatives use both melodic and lyric layout of existing Songs.Die "new" text will be sung on the same melody, and in the same way as the original song. This process is not only used by novices, there are a number of established artists to use this practice.

Why do you write alternative text?

Many newcomers use this practice as a tool to connect learning words with music.Well as established artists there are several reasons why - some possible causes are as follows.

* One of the most common forms of alternative lyrics are parodies. out all review of weird Al Yankovic's work. Some of its titles are "Amish paradise" ("gangsta's paradise" by Coolio);'It's all about the Pentium"("It's all about the Benjamins"by Sean Combs, notorious b.i.g., Sean Jacobs, et al);'Constipation ' ("complicated" by Avril Lavinge).

* Alternative lyrics can be used be a live performance a little flair, or break the monotony of the "same" song play every night while on tour. This can be seen in the guns n roses track "Don don't cry" [both versions can be found on the albums 'Use your illusion'].

* Maybe too much was in the original design of the song written and customized the writer the excess to make a 'new' track. Or possibly the writer was not in a position to decide on an angle on the song and continue to change the song, until you found something, were mit.Dies happy can be seen in the Staind song "Outside", can one of the original versions of the song by a simple search on the ' net.

Getting started

It's probably best if you first try alternative lyrics, to select a song you know how to write. To choose song if you try to choose a melody you know well.To begin with, examine the lyrics make arrangements note patterns such as such as rhyme, I mean syllable Count.Was? Look for the line end rhyme together and whether it is a pattern to it. The number of syllables in each row and see if it intentional design to you (Note: not all have this, but it is important to note what it is).

*-* Ensure that the song knows you well, hear it 100 times, if need be. You must be able to not only call the tune of mind, but also as the texts placed and be sung.

What will you do to write? You have a clear idea of what you are to write about. If you're going to write a parody what want theme you use?Jot down any ideas and something like the Word Association exercises in part 1 of this series might use thoughts cover in the song. If you decide to do a serious song jot down some ideas/words, to care etc coming - this can help you when it comes to writing the texts.

Now I can give you exactly, as you go say about the actual writing process.Everyone has his own style and methods, to be honest, I'm not exactly sure as I write, it is just me.However, I can give you some pointers in mind to keep when it comes to alternative write texts.

Hints and tips

# I mentioned above, the number of the syllable note will keep you nehmen.Indem this number in mind you with the original song to keep.Keep a copy of the text in nearby for easy reference when it makes it easier for you.I've noticed a few examples in my travels have disregarded disastrous for the song ends.The reason why this is happening because the 'beat' [or syllable count] text hat.Zum take example from the river of song disturbed, when the original lyrics: 7 / 8/7 / 7 and your alternative texts go 5/6/5/7;You can tell right away that there should be some problems in the flow of the 'new' song.This may take a little more time and planning in the writing of texts, but if you are using the format of the original song-stick are your lyrics thanks for it.

Is an exception to every rule, and it is one of them.You can sometimes get, where a syllable from both sides of the actual Anzahl.Obwohl you must be careful, when the do this because it did not work a chance.This works for all songs so that you be careful when functioning.this apply technology can help a little more freedom to work with you to recommend however, I leave this technique until you write with the lyric are more familiar.

# If a poetry has a particular rhyme scheme, try and different styles which used save some freestyle rhyme, keep as is poetry with ihm.Genau it can get away with free verse for your texts.

# Try to stay lyrics away from the lines or phrases, in the original song, especially, if it affects something like converting from rock / / in the drastic do say Christian songtexte.In itself could be a very effective song genre mix is very popular these days but only if you there right gemacht.Denken what you write about, I recently saw a piece that attempts based konvertieren.Dies song had a piece about street racing in a Christian very effective because, if you were not same phrases in the original song that use in conflict with what the author was trying to say.

#, If you want an invitation from the original song use, if you about a similar topic schreiben.Wie the first examples types alternative texts given both the guns n roses and Staind songs mentioned the choir remain the same and binds the two sets of lyrics / / zusammen.Sie can a line or two if you want to ' bind' your piece to the original song and use addition to your "new" song.

* * * * * * * * * *

By alternate lyrics are able to teach themselves how words with music you feel comfortable begleiten.sobald with the accompanying words and music in this way, take one to go on a little harder technique found in the next part 3 of this series, sampling and Ghost songs.
